2 sailors killed after Mexican Navy tall ship smashes into Brooklyn Bridge

  • On the night of Saturday, May 17, 2025, the Mexican Navy training vessel Cuauhtémoc collided with the Brooklyn Bridge in New York.
  • The ship, which was leaving a Manhattan pier with 277 people aboard, was not supposed to head toward the bridge when the collision occurred.
  • The three masts, each up to 160 feet tall, snapped after hitting the bridge’s nearly 1,600-foot main span, causing pandemonium and injuries on board.
  • Two crew members lost their lives and 19 others were treated for injuries, including four seriously hurt, while New York City’s mayor stated that the historic bridge, over 140 years old, sustained only minor damage.
  • Authorities launched an investigation, initially citing mechanical failure, as Mexican and U.S. Officials continue coordinated assistance efforts.
